Meslier was done by spin, flight and dip on the ball that Rashid would have been chuffed with.

Yeah, he was unlucky really, it spun like Shane Warne’s delivery to Mike Gatting.

PNE have a legitimate goal chalked off in the first few minutes for offside when he was on. I think the Dingles have brought their own officials again.

I'm sure there'd be a queue a mile long saying that if Pears had done it 🤣

well the ref is Gavin Ward, so anything is possible here

[Forever Blue]

PNE look really well drilled under Heckingbottom. They’re a big physical team. I think they’ll do well this season.

I think Burnley are an average team with some very good players for this level. They’ll win a lot of games simply because they have better players.

Gavin Ward, say no more.

Brownhill leave his boot in on the keeper, not even spoken to. Keeper soon gets booked for, in Wards opinion, time wasting. Ward warned Woodman then booked him within just a few seconds. Ward preparing his red card docket.

Heckingbottom has got them playing some better football and playing to their strengths. He will keep them up and build on it. I don't know whether he wants to play 3-5-1-1 thinking long term there or whether he wants to go 4-2-3-1 formation but he needs some wingers for that

I think their biggest problem is up front and lack of some quality strikers. Don't know why Flemming isn't starting in this team

Just what is the hype around this Burnley side?..

[Forever Blue]

Josh Brownhill is such a mard little twat! 
 

Burnley crying again!

[Forever Blue]

Gavin Ward is in his element here. Loves to be the centre of attention.

They spent a ton of money and have Scott Parker managing them, that's literally it. 

Parker is a no mark manager whose success is 100% down to outspending the league and scraping by.

Burnley scab another point.

[Forever Blue]

Burnley were piss poor for a team that cost close to £100m. 

[Bronzed A Donis]

That's two derbies now they only scabbed a point courtesy of shocking officiating.

Set of soft sacks.

If the were refereed properly it would help. To my knowledge at least ourselves, Leeds and now Preston were robbed by some of the worst refereeing possible.

Let’s hope the luck evens out

[sympatheticclaret]

That's 90+ minutes of my life I'm not getting back ... very poor, playing like a team who first met each other half an hour before kick off ... 

 

[Hasta]

I’m sure when they bought their season tickets for Fortress Turd, two scabby draws in their two derbies wasn’t what they were expecting.

[Oldgregg86]

God Preston are an awful watch. Constant time wasting, shithousing, rolling around. I’d be embarrassed to support them. Three times I’ve seen them this season and every game was identical to that

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Preston look like a pub team but being an effective pub team can get you a long way in this league. You definitely have to be prepared to fight them before you get to play football.

I wish Rovers were like that rather than being a bunch of soft cunts that constantly concede shit goals.

I was thinking that, they don’t take a backward step.

The also have a keeper that can catch a fucking ball as well.

I see Gally was missing from the Stoke set up today. It appears he’s injured again.

Hamstring strain I believe, back next week.
